Julian,
  There are several ways:

`for':
# assume each vector is named `sample.i'
# where `i' is 1:N
samp <- c()
for(i in 1:N)
  samp <- c(samp, get(paste("sample", i, sep = ".")))

`do.call':
# assume your N samples are in a list `samp.list'
# where length(samp.list) == N
samp <- do.call("c", samp.list)

HTH,
